Snowflakes


I thought this might just be the best quilt for Show and Tell today...'Snowflakes' from a 1940's pattern...Back in the days of my taking special orders, I wrote to Newsletter magazine [with paper and pencil] asking for this pattern...Someone there actually sent it to me FREE.....remember, that was many years ago!
We have 6" of the stuff, and waiting patiently for spring...

  7. this is a coincidence.I have a quilt top like that which I purchased at a garage sale for $125. I wondered if it had come from a needlework kit.........It is hand quilted and very nicely done. I am thinking of putting it on ebay to sell.......... I will try to post a picture of it on the message board. Marilyn in MN

  10. My husband takes snowflake pictures and I want to make him a quilt with his own pictures with a big snowflake in the center. Is there any way I can get the pattern for this beautiful snowflake pattern?
    I have been all over the internet and haven't found one quite as beautiful as this one. :)
